No matter what kind of political marriage he and Xiao Hezhen had.
But Xiao Hezhen liking Yuan Wenkang still made him feel... yes, displeased.
He just didn’t understand.
He was handsor than Yuan Wenkang, held a higher status than Yuan Wenkang, and even his martial arts skills were not inferior to Yuan Wenkang’s. Was Xiao Hezhen blind? To actually like Yuan Wenkang, that old man.
It’s not that he was jealous.
He just felt like his entire personhood was insulted by Xiao Hezhen.
To not want such a good man but to have a special affection for an old man...
Unreasonably, the more he thought about it, the angrier he beca.
He glanced at Yuan Wenkang and walked straight past him.
Yuan Wenkang just felt Wu Xufan’s departure.
Without saying a word to him.
He slowly got up from the ground.
Vaguely realizing, the Young Master knew about his affair with Princess Hezhen.
But their affair.
They had never told anyone.
Even they themselves kept it all hidden in their hearts.
No one ever spoke of it.
He pursed his lips.
For him.
He only hoped that Princess Hezhen could have a good ending.
Even if, the Young Master was playful and lacked education.
But Marquis Mansion wasn’t involved in court politics, marrying into it would an fewer intrigues for Hezhen, making it the best choice for her.
He would silently bless them.
...
Ye Qichi was forcibly taken back to the room by Xiao Jinxing.
Xiao Jinxing went to sleep.
Ye Qichi couldn’t sleep again.
She tried to leave several tis.
But Xiao Jinxing called her back each ti.
Ye Qichi really wanted to kill him.
Was he possessed today?!
So "dependent" on her?!
Deliberately not letting her leave, deliberately eating with her, it all felt very odd.
Even with his eyes closed, Xiao Jinxing could feel Ye Qichi scrutinizing him.
He didn’t open his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Ye Qichi, I remind you to be mindful of your status."
Mindful of what status?!
"As the Princess consort, you should maintain a proper distance from other n," Xiao Jinxing said coldly, "Out there, I don’t want to be too nitpicky, but you have been overstepping boundaries."
How had she overstepped boundaries?!
"Maintain your proper distance from Gu Xingchuan!" Xiao Jinxing finally put it outright.
He felt that if he didn’t say it.
Ye Qichi simply wouldn’t listen to him.
Ye Qichi rolled her eyes.
So all these inexplicable actions by the damned Prince today were just because of her relationship with Gu Xingchuan.
She laughed sarcastically, "As a married man, why don’t you maintain the proper distance from other won?!"
Xiao Jinxing’s expression clearly darkened.
"If I recall correctly, you, sir, even kissed Miss Bai..."
"Ye Qichi!" Xiao Jinxing suddenly burst out.
This guy was clearly throwing a tantrum out of embarrassnt.
Talking about others is fine, but when it cos to himself, he can’t handle the criticism.
"Why so aggressive! Is it a competition of who can be louder?"
"So you’re deliberately taking revenge on !" Xiao Jinxing asked Ye Qichi.
Ye Qichi almost choked on her saliva.
Which of his eyes saw that she was taking revenge on him!
"In Daxuan Kingdom, male superiority is taken for granted. It’s only natural for a man to have multiple wives and concubines," Xiao Jinxing declared righteously.
So Ye Qichi really disliked the n of Daxuan Kingdom.
In their view.
Marrying multiple won is completely normal.
Actually, n like Xiao Jinxing, who only loved Bai Mowan, were rare.
He even made the entire harem virtually insignificant for her.
Now this guy suddenly talked about Daxuan’s view on marriage...
"Xiao Jinxing, have you forgotten that we are supposed to divorce," Ye Qichi had to remind him again.
Xiao Jinxing’s expression turned grim, "You don’t need to deflect with that remark, even to irritate deliberately! I know you are resentful, but there’s an order to these things. I t Wan’er before I t you. It’s just unfortunate that our fate wasn’t strong enough."
"Indeed, because our fate wasn’t strong enough, that’s why we need to divorce, to make way for you and Bai Mowan," Ye Qichi said earnestly.
"Ye Qichi!" Xiao Jinxing flared up again.
Ye Qichi felt like her ears were going to be deafened.
"Don’t be so sarcastic here. The things I promised you, don’t overstep your boundaries."
Where had she overstepped her boundaries.
She hadn’t even thought of gaining any benefit from him, okay?!
The reason she was helping him ascend quickly was only to ensure the safety of the Minister Mansion.
Couldn’t Xiao Jinxing even grant this little favor?!
